Wild-Wool is a 100% natural fiber product made from 60% merino wool and 40% paihamu fiber spun together to make a premium cashmere-like fabric that is softer, warmer, and lighter than plain wool. All Wild-Wool products are 100% sourced and manufactured in New Zealand, are washable and do not pill. Gorgeous, premium accessories that are eco-friendly and practical - talk about a great way to reduce, reuse and recycle.

Four reasons why people love it:

1. It is softer, warmer and lighter than plain wool.
2. The colors are amazing and the products feel great against your skin. The Paihamu added to the wool reduces the “prickle” factor close to zero and Paihamu is believed to be hypoallergenic.
3. It is practical—it is washable, will never pill and will keep you warm.
4. The price is fair and shipping is included (We hate to nickel and dime).

Four reasons why every Wild-Wool product is eco-friendly:

1. It is a 100% natural fiber (60% New Zealand raised merino wool and 40% Paihamu).
2. It is minimally processed, renewable, durable, reusable, biodegradable, pesticide/insecticide/fertilizer free, and is not petroleum based.
3. The Wild-Wool accessories are 100% sourced and manufactured in New Zealand where first world living wages are paid.
4. Use of the Paihamu ameliorates an ecological nightmare caused by an invasive species. It is truly the best way to reduce, reuse and recycle.
